Product DescriptionDiscusses the science of geography as measured by globes, maps, latitude, longitude, and map symbols, and presents related projectsFrom School Library JournalGrade 36 Lye introduces all manner of globes and maps. Scales, latitude and longitude lines, symbols, varieties, grid locations, map making, and projections are discussed in the doublepage topic treatments. Although the distortion problem associated with the commonly used Mercator projection is mentioned, more realistic projections such as Peters's and Robinson's are not included. The handson projects such as making a scale drawing of a city lot, a treasure map, and a model of a mountain can be used for both individual and class activities. The fullcolor photographs and drawings are informative enough to make this title useful for younger children even though the detailed text is more suitable for intermediate students. This would be a useful next step after the Knowltons' Maps and Globes (Crowell, 1985) and Hartman's As the Crow Flies (Bradbury, 1991). Eunice Weech, M. L.
